Which group produces seeds enclosed in fruits and includes most flowering plants?

• A. Mosses
• B. Angiosperms
• C. Ferns
• D. Gymnosperms

Answer: (B)

Seeds enclosed in fruits point to angiosperms. In these plants, fertilization leads to the ovary developing into a fruit, which wraps around and protects the seeds and helps with their dispersal when animals or the environment carry the fruit away. This group is the most diverse and abundant among flowering plants, so you see it everywhere—from garden flowers to crops.

Mosses and ferns reproduce by spores and do not produce seeds or fruits. Gymnosperms do have seeds, but their seeds aren’t enclosed in a fruit; they’re exposed on structures like cones rather than inside a fleshy fruit.
